CALL - for guest editors to Journal of the MeCCSA-PGN

Networking Knowledge: Journal of the MeCCSA-PGNDeadline for proposals: 25 June 2012

As part of the MeCCSA-Postgraduate Network's remit to provide training and networking opportunities for new researchers, Networking Knowledge: Journal of the MeCCSA-PGN - which publishes work exclusively from those early in their academic careers - would like to welcome proposals from postgraduate and early career researchers to guest edit special issues based in the field of media, cultural, and communication studies.

As a guest editor you work in collaboration with the journal editor, who will provide support and guidance through the process of putting an issue together. This will include drafting and disseminating a call for papers, working with the vast pool of peer reviewers to select the best quality content for the issue, writing an introduction, and preparing documents for publication in adherence with the house style.

Proposals on any subject relevant to the interests of Media, Communication and Cultural Studies Association (MeCCSA) are welcomed.
